George Clooney and his wife Amal have welcomed their twins!

In a statement, the pair told “Extra” on Tuesday morning, "This morning Amal and George welcomed Ella and Alexander Clooney into their lives. Ella, Alexander and Amal are all healthy, happy and doing fine."

The couple jokingly added, "George is sedated and should recover in a few days.”

The Mirror UK reports that Amal gave birth to the twins in a private suite at London's Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.

The pair revealed in February that they were expecting.

In March, Clooney opened up about how he was prepping for fatherhood, telling “Extra’s” Renee Bargh, "I know swaddling… I know what I’m in for.”

His friend Julia Roberts, whose twins are about to be teenagers, told Mario Lopez she didn't have any advice for George and Amal. “There's no such thing as wisdom when you have twin babies in the house," she joked. "There's just hopes and prayers and tears and holding on tight to each other.”
